Genetic control of expansions and contractions of the (ATTCT)n repeats
Genetic background | (ATTCT)64 repeat rate (95% CI) of expansions (×10−7) | (ATTCT)103 repeat rate (95% CI) of contractions (×10−7) |
WT | 3.3 (2.4–4.1) | 6.4 (5.0–7.9) |
Δtof1 | 17.4 (8.5–26.3) | 48.0 (35–61) |
Δrad5 | <5 × 10−8 | 9.5 (4.0–17) |
Δrad52 | 1.0 (0.55–1.5) | Not studied |
